Answer:

2 because of the way the question is written

2/5 if you get 2 wrong.

Explanation:

1/2 * 4/5 of means multiply

numerator: 1*4 = 4

denominator = 2 * 5 = 10

Answer: 4 / 10 but this will reduce. Divide Top and Bottom by 2

4/2 = 2

10/2 = 5

Answer: 2/5

The way you should answer is 2 because the question gives you the fact that it is in 5ths. If you get it wrong then put in 2/5.
